From my personal experience RH7.2 owns 7.3
« on: 24 August 2002, 14:22 »
-With 7.3 full install never finished because anaconda gave me a bug report with packages containing python files.
   -KDE at times was slow as hell. Maybe it was the KDE version that had the memory leak problem.
   -Install was much slower
   -It seemed to be a bit slow on loading apps.


  7.2 on the other hand took about 20 minutes to do a full install.
  From what I can tell it runs faster.


  Now I just need to update my kernel, install the latest version of KDE and Gnome, and I use the CDROMS from 7.3 for apps that 7.2 doesnt have.

Specifications are for the weak and timid!
You question the worthiness of my code? I should kill you where you stand!
Indentation?! - I will show you how to indent when I indent your skull!
What is this talk of 'release'? Klingons do not make software 'releases'. Our software 'escapes' leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.
Klingon function calls do not have 'parameters' - they have 'arguments' - and they ALWAYS WIN THEM.
Debugging? Klingons do not debug. Our software does not coddle the weak.
A TRUE Klingon Warrior does not comment on his code!
Klingon software does NOT have BUGS. It has FEATURES, and those features are too sophisticated for a Romulan pig like you to understand.
You cannot truly appreciate Dilbert unless you've read it in the original Klingon.
Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it! Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are!

Hmmm, weird.  I've installed just as many 7.3 installs as 7.2 and have never had a problem with either. And I don't have to upgrade KDE on the 7.3 installs.  Are you sure your CDs aren't damaged?

  I know what you mean by weird. I never saw in Forums people saying they have these problems.
  I have a device that eliminates scratches and all that. But still the same problem.
  Maybe the CDs were defective from the factory or something.
  But updating my kernel wouldnt that mean I will basicaly be running 7.3?

Oh, absolutely not the same... KDE 3.0 is a huge upgrade from 2.2.  Every package on the system would be a newer version than what is on 7.2.  But KDE is probably the single biggest difference in my book.  It also includes Evolution, I don't believe 7.2 did that.
